Headaches, blocked nose, runny nose, itchy all over but especially in throat/ears, foggy brain, and just feeling generally exhausted and unhappy – Renae

For me a naturopath suggested it when I was dealing with constant hay fever type symptoms and asthma about 6 years ago. Life got in the way and I never did it. Am now doing it because of my 3mo and have my 3yo doing it too for behaviour and gut issues. It's fixed up my geographic tongue and associated pain after eating - Penny

Night wakes, length of sleep and time to get to sleep, general irritability and crying while having steady weight gain and a healthy appetite and appearance for an infant - Celine

Migraines and brain fog are my main symptoms. Those two overwhelm anything else - Deb

Skin issues, gut issues, muscle aches, asthma - Ashlee

Daily migraines – Elise

I was originally sent to the immunologist because I wanted to find out what was making me always itchy. He then asked me a gazillion questions 'have you ever had....', and I kept going 'yes', 'yes', 'yes', 'yes'. I was causing me so many issues, that I had been going to the doctor about for years. I couldn't believe how much better I felt (after the horrid withdrawal symptoms) after about 6 weeks - Wendy

Bloating, gas, constipation or diarrhoea. Headaches - Kara

Angioedema, hives, joint pain, nosebleeds, mouth ulcers, rhinitis, asthma attacks, throat swelling, fevers, and night sweats. Was referred to anaphylaxis clinic and diagnosed as salicylate sensitivity. Decided to do this diet as recommended to me by other sufferers as most accurate - Petrie

I had migraines, dizziness, nausea, dry eyes, swollen glands, arthritis, asthma, clogged ears, foggy headed feeling and fatigue. These symptoms would come n go. I knew I was allergic to aspirin for years n my dr told me to avoid wine. That's it. When I discovered that salicylates were in food, 30 years later, I gave up all foods with moderate to very high sals. 2 days later my symptoms went away. And I surprisingly didn’t suffer withdrawal symptoms like a lot of other people - Joan
